physio

interesting commentary on the ib league by tim seow.

it's been a great weekend.

was at the sports council at kallang with anson for this physio test at 9 in the morning. this dude called rushdin and two other nice ladies made us ride this bike at increasing levels of resistance, starting from 60 watts until you cannot tahan anymore.

they used this strange looking mouthpiece to collect exhaled air, and pinched my nose to stop air escaping there. uncomfortable, and eventually drenched with sweat.

which goes on to explain why i walked into school (wondering why there were prefects from other schools) a few minutes before 12 to see a half empty english class.

in effect, i only had physics (and physical ed.) today. haha.

oh, and the yoghurt ice cream is good.

. . .

been teaching pple how to sail the last week... realised how i've been sailing for half my life.

do i ever sound like a boring dude? everytime also sailing, sailing, sailing. throughout all these years, i remember having to come back to my grandma's house on a sunday evening after, say, winning a regatta. there was initially enthusiasm, but after a few years they kinda treated it like 'another day'. and my cousin's had to sit through it all.

parents are always talking about expanding horizons, trying out more activities. dad said yesterday that i seem to concentrate all my energies and 'maturity' on sailing.

but, after all this time, it's still very much the same drug i've been addicted to all along.

dawn said she's planning to go aus for university in future. soon i'll have to really put some thought into what i'm going to do with this life of mine. pretty convinced i can't make it through in a sport.

had a look at this poster of dr. ben tan at the ssc. i guess i'd like to achieve things that he has done - pro sailor and sports doctor rolled into one.
